So i bought 18x10" rims all the way around. The problem i am having is the front wheels sit too close to the rotor and the bearing cap on the wheel (black plastic piece that covers up the castle nut) is pushing the center cap out of the new wheels.

Cruizin Concepts says i need 1/4" spacer at most, but after measuring i need 1/2" spacer minumum.

After being out in the sun from 12-3 being on the phone (waiting) and scratching my head thinking about what to do i feel sick or sun stroke or something.

right now i am driving around with the wheels i just do have any center caps on the wheels and it looks slightly silly.

what kind of wheels are they?

I will take some pictures in a few. I got FR500 18x10, chrome w/ 275s on all four corners.

The black dust cover (plastic piece cruizin concepts is calling a dust cover) that i would assume is what hides the castle nut sticks out through the center of the wheels. After some measuring the center cap for the new wheels is 1/2" away from fitting into the wheel. In other words the wheel would need to be spaced 1/2" out.

I can get the 1/2" spacer but i am worried it is too much. 1/4" i figured is too much.

Thanks for the help, i will take pictures soon.

more pictures of the black dust cap that is on the front rotors protruding through the wheel about 1/2" too much. This is why i cannot have my center cap on

What do i do!!

Maybe Mike can chime in

so what i ended up doing was denting the dust cap. Wheel center caps fit, everything now seems to be fine.
